    Started the 14bolt build over the holiday. Got the axle flanges turned down and old drums and hubs pulled off and started cleaning up housing for fresh paint. Will take some pics and post up when I get a chance.

    10 bolt on last leg...

    So I ended up getting a CUCV 14 bolt FF with 4.56's and a Detroit locker. I have picked up a set of Solid Axle Industries aluminum 6 lug conversion hubs, cutthroat offroad disc brake brackets. I still need: discs, calipers, u-bolts/plates, shock tabs, spring perches, and conversion u-joint...

    GM 10 Bolt parts

    Thought this was sold but shipping to Alaska didn't work out since it is just a little too big for a flat rate box.

    10 bolt on last leg...

    I daily drive it. So 90% street but the Hot Springs orv park is right down the road and I go every chance I get. Didn't have a g80 in it. Had an eaton posi. Carrier bearing failure is what got me. But only had the 10 bolt because I picked up the matching set with 4.56's when I lifted truck 3yrs...

    10 bolt on last leg...

    I haven't made it to any of the yards around here yet to check but that is the price range I have been finding them on the local 4x4 forums, craigslist, and ebay. Thought they would be in $200-400 range but everything I have found in the last week or two has been in the price range listed or...

    10 bolt on last leg...

    So the 10 bolt on the truck in my sig ate a carrier bearing, chewed up some teeth on my 4.56s, and looks like it may have messed up the eaton posi unit in it also. I was able to take it to machine shop and they re-worked the bearing seat and put on new carrier bearings and I put it back together...

    The Stupid Axle Questions Thread

    yes for truck in my sig. problem is I cannot find a 14 SF to save my arse around here and I am running 4.56's so a 14 SF will cost me gears, locker, plus purchase. I have found several 14 FF's with 4.56's and a Detroit for $500-700 and all I would need it the above mentioned hub kit to have a...

    What do I have to change to put a 14 bolt 10.5 FF under my truck? Am aware of them being 8 lug. Is there a trick u-joint that will work with my stock driveshaft to mate to the yolk? Do the spring perches match up or do you have to weld on new ones?

    Finally... My very own build thread.

    The kit is a TrailMaster 6" full drop for the front and did a shackle flip and a 1" 0 rate in the back. The truck is level front to back if the gas tank is empty and I take the tool box out. But with a full tank, all my tools for an off-road trip, and a spare tire in back I am about an inch...

    Finally... My very own build thread.

    So If I am really twisted up the rears will stuff inside the bed fender wells and the inside of the tires rub on the bed. But I didn't extend the bump stops so that may be part of my problem there. I want to throw a set of longer shackels on the back to level it up and that may be enough to stop...

    Finally... My very own build thread.

    Been a while since I posted an update. Haven't done much but just drive the old truck day in and day out. I have put about 30k miles on the truck since the lift, it has been running good and getting me to work every day. Tires are holding up good, got a little more than half tread left. So...

    1 inch body lift is there one made?

    I was told the SummitRacing branded body lifts are made by Performance Accessories and the part numbers online are similar. So if I was in the market for a 3" I would save $100 and get the Summit kit over the PA kit.

    15x10 wheel backspacing?

    I have 16x10 with 0 offset 5.5" bacspacing like my stock wheels. This allowed me to run 36x15.50's on 6" full drop suspension lift with light crank and mild trimming. The problem on our trucks is that the wider the tire wheel combo sticks out the sooner it will rub on the front bumper and back...

    Balljoint Question

    put a pry bar between knuckle and arm, if it moves or has slack needs to be changed. Some times you can jack it up and push/pull on top and bottom of tire and check for slack. but doing this way slack could be wheel bearing and or ball joint.
